"A New Normal" Program Series at Youville Place: Top Ten Truths for Adults Coping with a Parent's Dementia

In this presentation designed for adult children, Beth Soltzberg and Joanne Peskowitz from Jewish Family & Children's Service elaborate on the practical and emotional aspects of coping with a parent's dementia. They explore ways that family structure and coping style affect the caregiving experience. Caregivers will learn tips for maintaining their own well-being, deciding when to step in and when to let go, and learning how to share more meaningful experiences with their loved ones. An open discussion will follow the presentation. Please RSVP: lisarayin@youvillehouse.org or call Lisa, 857.253.2016.
